There are insurance companies that now cover a State Licensed Acupuncturist. I take, BC/BS, Etna and the VA and some others. (The billing paperwork SUCKS) 
I can not afford a coder to do the bills.

You can ask your insurance company for the names and numbers of Licensed TCM Doctors they have on file.
Or you can try Health Professionals  https://www.healthprofs.com/us/members?tr=Hdr_Brand for your state and get a pretty good profile with what they specilize in and what insurance they take.
I am listed with them.
Here is a good choice https://www.healthprofs.com/us/acupunctu...423&ref=10
https://www.healthprofs.com/us/acupunctu...f423&ref=2

I think for Kentucky and maybe TN.
Go to the site and choice your state and then on the left side choice the type of specialist.

I hope this helps.

We have an acupuncture doctor about 11 miles from here. In a shocker, grace's pain clinic doctor prescribed acupuncture for her, and she found that doctor. We've not been there yet, though.

I'm big on chiropractors. I've found two decent ones over the course of my life, but ran into many more who weren't so good. Many of them are just in it to see how much money they can bilk out of you. The last good one I went to was for a problem where the last two fingers on my left hand were going numb. He charged 145 buck for some x-rays to diagnose the problem, and 35 bucks a visit to fix it, which was reasonable.

In contrast, I ran into one in Greensboro, NC, who charged anywhere from 750 to 900 dollars a visit to do nothing. I went to see him ONCE, after a car wreck, and he charged me 900 dollars for that one visit, and all he did was clack around on me with one of those clicker things, then told me to come back 5 times a week for more. No thanks. I actually made money on that one, though - the insurance company had gotten a lot of complaints on him, and were wanting to build an insurance fraud case against him.
